In 1391 the castle was pledged to Linhard von Henfenfeld by the Wittelsbach dukes, after which other pledge holders and caretakers appeared. In 1419 it was ceded to the brothers Hans, Eberhart and Wilhelm von Mistelbeck, who had claims against Duke Ludwig of Bavaria-Ingolstadt. The handover did not take place because of the Bavarian War. In the Bavarian War between Duke Ludwig of Bavaria-Ingolstadt and his cousins, the Bavarian Dukes of Landshut and Munich, Lichtenstein Castle was conquered and destroyed in June 1421 by Count Palatine Johann von Neumarkt-Neunburg, who was allied with Ludwig's opponents. In the terrain exploration of the imperial city of Nuremberg from 1503 to 1504, in which all castles and fortifications are listed in relation to the Landshut War of Succession that soon followed, Lichtenstein is described as “an old, traditional castle”. An entry in the Salbuch from 1516 also states that Lichtenstein was only a castle stable. The Sulzbach regional court granted the Mistelbeck brothers their right to compensation in 1421 and again in 1422. The castle ruins fell into disrepair; In 1851 the Bavarian state sold it to Paul Willhelm Freiherr Ebner von Eschenbach. Around 1855, in the spirit of the awakening romanticism of castles, he had the pseudo-ruins built on the upper castle using rising masonry and an English landscape garden set up in the area of the lower castle, which, however, also fell into disrepair.[5] Today there is forest around the castle ruins and it is partly overgrown with bushes. Several hiking trails from Pommelsbrunn and the surrounding area lead to the ruins. The medieval remains of Lichtenstein Castle, especially those of the lower castle, are at great risk of decay.

Today there is forest around the castle ruins and it is partly overgrown with bushes. Several hiking trails from Pommelsbrunn and the surrounding area lead to the ruins. In any case, the view is beyond any doubt :)

Beautiful, well-preserved castle, which you can walk around just below the walls. You can also visit the inside for a fee of €2.50 for adults. The castle is open from March to November (weather permitting). The castle is open on Sundays and public holidays from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m It is closed on Mondays and Tuesdays.

Castle is accessible and can be visited. You have a great view. Between the floors there is a beautiful herb garden. A part is integrated into a rock. A newer building, the "long house", houses, among other things, holiday apartments.

The view up to the castle. Always fascinating
